Mocha Crunch Cake

My first official cake order! Yay!

I was thrilled when my friends Aaron and Tsu requested a birthday cake for their friends giving me the freedom of making any cake of my choice as long as it had two things -- chocolate and coffee. Classic chocolate cake with coffee flavored frosting was the first thing that popped into my mind, but I wanted to do something special and different for my first official cake order. So I created Mocha Crunch Cake!

One of my favorite treats growing up in the Philippines was Choco Mocha Crunch cake from Red Ribbon Bakeshop. This cake is my own take on the childhood favorite cake.
